Georgia Taylor-Brown takes Super League title

A stunning Commonwealth performance from Georgia in Birmingham.

Local legend Georgia Taylor-Brown has impressed once again after winning the Super League Triathlon series.

Former Fairfield High student, Georgia, powered through the race to successfully retain her title in Saudi Arabia. 

She finished ahead of Sophie Coldwell and Beth Potter for an all-British podium, after a thrilling and intense race series. 

The Super League Triathlon sees the best triathletes in the world compete head-to-head, racing for five teams. The three highest placed men and women from each race contribute to the points for their team's total. 

The finale is hosted in Neom, a Saudi Arabian city still being built on the Red Sea, making it a truly unique experience for athletes.

Georgia put in a stellar performance throughout the five-race series, asserting herself as the rightful champion. 

Winning three out of five races, Georgia claimed her second consecutive title, working incredibly hard to do so. 

This victory follows a line of success for the 28-year-old. Returning from the Commonwealth Games with a selection of achievements shortly after achieving medals at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, Georgia has proven to be an unstoppable force in the sporting world. 

Soon, she will set her sights on the Paris 2024 Olympics. Until then, she will continue to amaze in the triathlon scene.
